Regular Figures • Mathematical Formulae • Method of Coordinates • Irregular Figures • Graphical Method • Give and Take Method • Trapezoidal Rule • Simpson’s One-Third Rule Areas
Area is divided into triangles, rectangles, squares or trapeziums Area of the one figure (e.g. triangles, rectangles, squares or trapeziums) is calculated and multiplied by total number of figures
Area = 0.5(| 136840.01 – (-84890.94) |) = 110865.48 ft2 Areas by Method of Coordinates
Irregular Figures • Give and Take Method • Graphical Method • Trapezoidal Rule • Simpson’s One-Third Rule Areas
In this method, the irregular figure is replaced by a regular one of approximately equal area that can be calculated by one of the methods explained earlier. Give and take Method
Graphical Method Area=( number of compelet squer* area of each squer)+ (area of the uncompelet sqer
Graphical Method =1 cm2
Simpson’s One-Third Rule Offset Intercept ONLY used with Odd number of offsets (i.e. Even number of Intercepts)
Planimeters Digital Planimeter Optical Polar Planimeter
From internet : Measure areas using Google Maps http://www.acme.com/planimeter/
Scanner the map then calculate the area by specialized program
